Why healthy eating is often misunderstood

Many people reach for supposedly healthy foods that are actually full of sugar, additives, or bad fats.

Advertising and misleading labels make it difficult to make the right choices.

  • "Fat makes you fat"

    Why healthy fats are vital and which fats are truly harmful (e.g., trans fats vs. omega-3 fatty acids).

  • "Sugar is sugar"

    Why there's a difference between refined sugar and natural fructose.

  • "Diet products are healthier"

    They often contain more sugar or additives.

  • "Low-carb is the best solution for everyone"

    Why it depends on individual factors.

The Difference Between Healthy and Unhealthy Fats

Not all fats are the same – some are essential, while others are harmful to the body in the long term. It's crucial to know the differences

Did you know that even a single day without sugar can have positive effects on your body?

After just 24 hours, your blood sugar levels drop, which reduces inflammatory markers in the body and improves blood circulation in the skin – the first steps toward less inflammation and a brighter complexion!

  • Genetics and lifestyle

    Influencing factors - Age, activity level, health conditions.

    Adaptation - Which diet suits your lifestyle.

  • Practical tips

    Experiment with different approaches - low-carb, high-protein, vegan diet.

    Listen to your body - What's good for you and what's not?

  • Why regional is often better

    Short transport routes: Fresher food with higher nutrient content.

    Fewer pollutants: Less pesticides thanks to local production.

  • Quality over quantity

    Organic doesn’t always mean more nutritious: pay attention to the origin and processing.
